The edibles were my favorite way to medicate.
Sometimes, we find ourselves in a situation where medicating with marijuana isn’t a feasible option. You can’t go shopping, to church, or to work, with a pocketful of marijuana cigarettes. The smell alone would be enough to have people staring. If you lit up, you knew you would be put out of the church or fired from your job. I often thought about getting a vape pen, but after hearing about how dangerous they could be, I didn’t want to get one. I had enough medical problems without adding in lung problems from a vape. One day I went to my cannabis dispensary. I was talking to them about marijuana products I could use that would allow me to use them at work, in church, or while in stores. These are the three places where my anxieties were at their worst. She told me about edibles. It wasn’t like I had heard about marijuana edibles before, but I had never tried them. I was able to purchase edibles in my favorite strains of marijuana. She gave me some lozenges to try for when I was in church and gum that I could be chewing when in the stores. I even got some gummies for work. It was so much easier to medicate now that I was actually using the edibles. I still bought the normal marijuana products from the cannabis dispensary, but I loved the convenience of the edibles. The cakes and brownies were especially fun to use when I had friends over on the weekends. I just had to be careful about how much I shared.
